A Reader Says We Should Actually
Read The New American
From: Stephanie Smith [Email]
I take great offense by
Kevin Carter’s response to the writer who queried
him as to why he excluded Rep. Ron Paul:
"The things he talks about aren’t going to win him many
votes (except maybe from a few rightwing eggheads and
John Birch Society members) so I just don’t see the
point."
I would like to point out that
John Birch Society's exemplary publication
The New American has been in the forefront for
years in calling for immigration reforms (both legal and
illegal) - numerous publications have been devoted to
exposing the
"open borders lobby," how our elites are
importing anarchy, changing the law that has allowed our
radical justices to interpret the "anchor babies as
citizens," and as best I can tell were the first in
exposing the proposed North American/Mexican/Canadian
merger (the
FTAA agreement).
I challenge Mr. Carter to actually read their
fine publication, and instead of dismissing them along
the lines of "eggheads" learn to make
distinctions between our friends and enemies.

I read.
And it's true that the John
Birch Society was marginalized not just by some excesses
on their part, but by a campaign by
"respectable conservative"
William F. Buckley
to drive them out of the conservative movement. He's
like that, you. [See
Buckley Fiction by
Marcus Epstein.] I'm afraid, however, that Kevin Carter
is right on one point. The John Birch Society represents
a very small proportion of actual voters. People who are
concerned about immigration, on the other hand,
represent a very large one.
